Windows 7: BSOD playing games using an xbox 360 controller:

I had been playing Assassins creed black flag using a wired Xbox 360 controller with no issues. Recently I started getting a BSOD after about 15 minutes of play, consistently. If I remove the game pad I can play with no issues using the mouse and keyboard.

As I started to analysis what was happening I realized the gamepad was disconnecting and reconnecting intermittently as I was playing, then at some point I would get the BSOD. When I started to pay close attention I actually could hear the audio sound you get when you plug in or remove a USB device, over and over again.

I have attached the requestedDM Log and I have also included a link to dropbox for my dump file as I was uncertain how to create a mini dump and mine is very large.

Drop box link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f08arco7mrcpwc0/MEMORY.zip?dl=0While reading multiple forms I found the recommendation to run a program called “Driver Verifier”. When I ran this program my system was caught in an infinite BSOD loop, the file it listed during the BSOD was NARCPI_WFP.sys

After getting nowhere on the issue I reformatted my 250GB boot drive, reinstalled Windows 7, all required drivers, and antivirus and such. I installed Assassins creed black flag using Steam, GTA 5 a non-steam game, and have the same issue. It was at this moment I realized the only change I can remember making since the issue began was installing GTA 5.

Finally, while playing GTA 5 I can hear the gamepad disconnect and reconnect (of course, it stops working), but I do not get the BSOD, so far!

We had to go through a Windows 7 system repair both times to restore computer functionality - however, I do worry that doing this might have destroyed evidence of the "true" BSOD problem. I have...
